Getting Better

Dear Prudende,
I hope you found this butterfly wing interesting. I could think of nothing better. Also, today I avoided any contact with the human race other than my mother. I hid in the bathroom for lunch period. It went fine until my tuna sandwich fell in the toilet.
But, hey, I’ve had worse days. My mother says to say hello to your mother. She said something about the taxes in this town, I don’t know.
I cannot believe that the school year is almost over! I’m going to be an eight grader! And then I’m out of this school for good!
How was your first day in school? Are the kids any better there? Well, just update me on what’s new.
Your friend,
Jude

P.S.—Maybe if I earn enough money in allowance and chores, I can visit you. ;)
